October 28, 2025, one day before her 93rd birthday. She was born October 29, 1932, in Wesleyville, Pennsylvania, to Floyd and Rachel Gowans, and was the sister of Floyd and Fred Gowans. Alice grew up in Erie, Pennsylvania, and graduated from Academy High School in 1950. She later attended Brigham Young University before transferring to the University of Utah, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in nursing in 1955.

Alice met her future husband, Jack Evans, on a blind date to Lagoon. They were married June 7, 1955, in the Salt Lake Temple. Jack preceded her in death in 2012. Together they raised seven children and created a loving posterity.

Alice lived a life of dedication, service, and faith. A devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, she served in many capacities, including Relief Society, Young Women, and Primary presidencies. She was also an accomplished piano player and took organ lessons, serving for many years as a ward organist. She blessed others with her music and her willingness to serve wherever she was needed.

Alice and Jack cherished time with family. They enjoyed years of camping, traveling, cheering on their grandchildren, and spending time on their houseboat at Lake Powell. They were lifelong Weber State Wildcat fans and traveled with the team for many years, proudly holding season tickets for over five decades.

After raising her family, Alice worked in the nursery at McKay-Dee Hospital and later served as a clinical instructor at Davis Applied Technology College. She touched many lives through her nursing and teaching. Alice also loved quilting and made a graduation quilt for each grandchild.

Alice treasured many lifelong friends whose companionship enriched her life. The family expresses deep gratitude to Rocky Mountain Hospice, especially her nurse Jenn and CNA Abbie, for their tender and loving care.

Alice is survived by her 7 children, 27 grandchildren, and 30 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, Jack; her grandson, Kade Boyer; her parents; and her brothers.
